Huangshan Mountain, a tourist attraction with peculiar mountain peaks and distinctive pine trees in Anhui province, also offers delicately baked crispy pancake.
The so-called Huangshan pancake is a traditional round dim sum traditionally baked in a charcoal oven for 30 minutes or so after being filled with dried vegetables.
Legend has it that the pancakes, acclaimed for their quality, originated in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). They're mainly produced in Huangshan city and neighboring counties.
